บท 202: 'His' Arrival

Aiden's heart raced as he moved through the dimly lit hall, his footsteps light and cautious. He scanned the room, looking for any signs of an exit. The walls, adorned with strange symbols, seemed to close in on him, but he pushed forward, driven by a determination to save his fellow children.

Just as he rounded a corner and spotted a door that seemed to lead outside, a cold shiver ran down his spine.

A sinister presence loomed behind him, and before he could react, a powerful kick slammed into his abdomen.

"Gah!" Aiden gasped, the force of the blow sending him flying backward. He crashed into the ground near the other children, pain radiating through his body.

"Aiden!" Miya, Amina, and Aurora rushed to his side, their faces pale with fear and concern.
